Stardust is the debut extended play by English singer-songwriter and actress Freya Skye. The single, "Silent Treatment", was released on 2 December 2025.[2]

Background

Previously Skye had participated in Junior Eurovision 2022 representing the United Kingdom. She won the public vote and finished fifth overall.[3][4]

In the summer, Zombies 4: Dawn of the Vampires was released and Skye starred in the Descendants/Zombies: Worlds Collide Tour, part of the Descendants and Zombies franchises, running from 17 July to 16 September.[5]

In 2025, Skye released the singles "Can't Fake It", "Who I Thought I Knew" and "Gold's Gone".[6] In October 2025, Skye announced her first solo set of shows, Freya Skye: The Acoustic Shows, with four shows across Los Angeles, New York and London, that took place from December 2025 to January 2026.[7]

On 27 January 2026, Skye announced her first EP, Stardust, which was released on 4 February 2026.[2]

Writing and recording

Skye worked on Stardust with songwriters and producers including Julia Michaels, Mattman & Robin, and Johan Carlsson.[8] On the EP's title Skye commented, "The meaning just came to it being the songs on the EP are the 'stardust.' They're a bit broken when they're separated and they're a bit messy, very honest, but then when you put it together, it tells the full story. It just felt perfect."[9]

Music and lyrics

"Silent Treatment" is the first track, being described as combining an "up-tempo acoustic guitar with glossy pop synths" like the style of pop icons like Taylor Swift. Tracks like "Petty" have contemporary pop hooks and energetic production reminiscent of Charli XCX, while "Golden Boy" has been described as an "acoustic pop ballad". Overall, the EP has been described as mainstream pop with acoustic and synth pop influences.[10][11][12]
